Are all venomous snakes dangerous?

No. There is a clear distinction between venomous and potentially dangerous. Snake venom is mainly used to kill prey for food. Defence is a secondary use of venom. A White-crowned Snake that eats only small lizards does not need to produce large quantities of potent venom. Although venomous, it is unlikely to do much harm to an adult human.
